To: Isle airport members and supporters
From: Friends of Isle Airport organization

This is to give our sincere thanks to all the customers, volunteers, donors and contributors who attended our annual fly-in pancake breakfast event last Sunday. This was the 70th annual event (less a couple cancelled over the years due to Covid and other factors out of our control) and quite successful despite excessive heat, although not terrible in the morning. Almost 600 served, great food and a good gathering of fifteen or twenty interesting aircraft also added to the appeal.

Congratulations to the three winners of our annual raffle prizes, and the winner of the special raffle prize of an open cockpit ride in the Stearman biplane this year. Special for the lady who won that since it was her birthday!

Looking forward to another successful event during next Isle Days July 2027. Thanks to all for your support of this beautiful and historic airfield.

Dear members,

The courtesy car is now repaired and available for use by the registered members. We don't reserve the car ahead of time so it's first come - first served.

Have a great summer and flying season!
